Year 2 News

What a wonderful term so far! Swimming is a hit on Friday’s and we are enjoying our Starry Starry night practices. 

We had a wonderful day on Friday putting our design ideas into action.  The students needed to be able to do the following when creating their raft;

  1. Describe what you need to make to others
  2. Chose appropriate materials based on their features and uses
  3. Communicate design idea using a labelled drawing 
  4. Communicate design idea using a 3D model
  5. Evaluate how you did (photos coming soon)

The Year Two's will be making Origami crosses for our Mission Day item to sell on Thursday. We are decorating these with Aboriginal Symbols, just like Thancoupie decorated her pottery. These will be for sale for 50 cents.

This terms attendance is quite low with only 67% of students attending school in the green zone. Hopefully sickness is behind us now so we can wrap up our units and get to assessing student’s knowledge and understanding over the next few weeks ready for reports. 

It has been wonderful meeting with lots of you recently to discuss your child’s progress. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch. 

Thank you!
